Before setting up the studio in 1996, Gregorc and Vrhovec both worked in interior design and planning. Rather than waiting for commissions and investors, they are often involved in investing in and constructing their own designs – an approach more common abroad than in Slovenia. Two of their earlier projects were realised this way. The first was a row of five studio lofts in Rožna Dolina, Ljubljana (2005), with elegant demarcations between living and working, private and communal. The second was a group of four single-family "passive houses" in the Barje, the area of marshland to the south of the city. Like much of their work, it references older Slovenian building materials and styles – in this case, the use of black (tar-protected) timber as favoured by earlier generations of marshland builders. Both projects also, to some extent, express the architects' admiration for the aesthetics and social focus of the American "Case Study Programme", the experimental residential house-building initiative that ran from the end of WW2 to the mid-1960s.
